Boston: InterSystems, a leading data technology firm responsible for managing over a billion health records globally, has announced a strategic partnership with Google Cloud to address the persistent issue of data fragmentation in healthcare.
According to BERNAMA News Agency, the collaboration, unveiled at the HLTH conference, integrates InterSystems HealthShare with Google Cloud’s advanced artificial intelligence infrastructure. This integration aims to establish a scalable, real-time data foundation that supports generative and agentic AI applications in both clinical and operational environments. Don Woodlock, head of Global Healthcare Solutions at InterSystems, emphasized that the partnership ensures healthcare organizations can access clean, connected, and actionable insights.
Woodlock stated, “AI is transforming healthcare, but it can only succeed when it’s grounded in reliable, actionable data.”
Aashima Gupta, Google Cloud’s global director of Healthcare Strategy and Solutions, highlighted that healthcare organizations are keen to adopt AI solutions that are safe, responsible, and immediately useful. Gupta remarked, “InterSystems is delivering a platform that simplifies data preparation and enables organizations to unlock the full value of their information.”
The integration leverages HealthShare’s capabilities such as patient identity resolution, normalization, and terminology mapping within Google Cloud’s AI ecosystem, which includes BigQuery and Vertex AI. This synergy enables healthcare organizations to create FHIR-ready datasets for large-scale analytics, develop advanced AI models for decision support and automation, and improve security and interoperability for more secure data exchange.
The new solution, available through a bring-your-own-license model, is set to launch on the Google Cloud Marketplace in North America by the first quarter of 2026, with plans for a global rollout to follow.
